Feelings are neither good nor bad, they just need acknowledgment.

A good listener should stop assuming responsibility of trying to make us feel better because that invalidates our feelings. A good listener is only asked to listen, so don’t judge. It is rare to find a person who is willing to listen and accept/acknowledge our feelings that we experience. We all need a good listener and when we do find one, it is an immense sense of relief because our emotional loneliness is attenuated. Sadly though, we’re all very judgmental.
